LEVELHIKE HDMI Cable for PlayStation 2 PlayStation 1 Console PS2 PS1 PS1 PS2 to HDMI Adapter with True

I recently bought a new 2025 model Samsung Q8F 4k 120hz tv, and it does not have any composite/component inputs that I can see. I was planning originally to mod my ps2 slim with the hispeedido hdmi kit, (still may) however the more I researched into the ps2 hdmi conversion kits, the more confusing it got! Ultimately, you can spend a lot of money on a scaler or hdmi mod (retrotink/retrogem) but for someone that just wants a plug and play solution this cable is pretty awesome! The picture is surprisingly good, and theres no install needed, just plug it in! The colors are good for the most part, I have noticed some cut scenes/ into scenes here and there can have a bit too much green, red, or blue tint. For example I am playing grand turismo 3 currently and have noticed the green blue and red colors during the introduction scenes, but looks pretty great during game play. I believe my television has a built in AI upscaling feature that may be affecting the final results, and your results may vary from mine however my experience so far is overwhelmingly positive. Thank you levelhike for the handy cables! Read more

Love it! PS2 games look better than ever. Works perfectly with my Sony OLED tv. I saw one review that said this won’t work on Sony tv sets, but it is working on mine. I had an rca to hdmi converter made by Onn that I got at Walmart for more than this costs. It was terrible. The picture was blurry and dark. With this it is now clear and bright. My PS2 games have been given a new life. Well worth the money if you want to play your old games again. Read more

I bought this for my PSXs and did not have big expectations after having used similar products for PS2 and Wii, where at best, there was a noticeable lag that hampers many games. My first nice surprise was that the cables are all of very good quality, definitely not expected at this price range. You get good solid thick cables for both the HDMI cable and the USB cable used to power up the device. The adapter uses the RGB signals from the Multi-ouput port, the same points used for the S-Video cables that offer the best quality on these systems. The result is incredibly superior to the regular composite (the usual yellow RCA connector). I was completely shocked when I saw it working for the first time. For reference, just buying a second-hand S-Video cable for the PS1 will cost you at least $40, and of course you would need a S-Video capable TV too. I wanted to try this on a SCPH-1001 (the first revision that came out in the US) that had some video issues using the regular composite, where the letters appear like doubled with an horizontal offset. This makes reading text even more terrible that it already is in these consoles when using the standard connector. Apparently, this effect is introduced due to a signal stronger than necessary. I have got yet to replace the capacitors on this unit to see if this issue is resolved. But to my surprise, the image through the adapter was very sharp and precise, perfect. Not a single trace of this problem, I guess this is because it uses RGB signal that provides so much better quality over the composite. My next test was to check if there was any lag introduced by the adapter, as some other reviewers mention. If there is any lag, I was not able to notice it. I have got to say that I mostly play Tomb Raider games, but also loaded Ms Pac-Man and the movements seem to occur in a very precise manner. Your mileage may vary with other type of games. I am sure that other devices like the Retrotink 5X pro will produce a better image with no lag, but they are also $300, plus you need to procure a PSX RGB cable (probably the S-Video cable + an adapter). For a tenth of the cost you get an all-in-one very convenient solution, a very capable adapter that is already a huge improve in image quality and also cleans the image from artifact and noise. I highly recommend this adapter. I don't write many reviews, but this product deserved it. There is definitely one con, the connector that goes in the PS1 is slightly bigger than it should, so you need to apply some force (and care!) to plug it in. I initially wanted to take off one star because of this, but I think overall the product is fantastic, so I am keeping the 5-stars review. Read more

Works great and compatible with my original US PS2 and my JP PS2 slim. Came with clear instructions on how to get rid of the green image issue. I have been playing my old PS2 games on a 50" tv with no issues and the image is crystal clear! It needs power to run but I am able to plug it directly into the PS2's USB ports to power it just fine making it really convenient to set up. Read more
